As Time Goes By Lyrics

(feat. Queen Latifah)

 This day and age we're living in

 Gives cause for apprehension

 With speed and new invention

 And things like third dimension

 

 Yet we get a trifle weary

 With Mr. Einstein's theory

 So we must get down to earth at times

 Relax relieve the tension

 And no matter what the progress

 Or what may yet be proved

 The simple facts of life are such

 They cannot be removed

 

 You must remember this

 A kiss is still a kiss,

 A sigh is just a sigh

 The fundamental things apply

 As time goes by

 

 And when two lovers woo

 They still say, "I love you"

 On that you can rely

 No matter what the future brings

 As time goes by

 

 Moonlight and love songs

 Never out of date

 Hearts full of passion

 Jealousy and hate

 Woman needs man

 And man must have his mate

 That no one can deny

 

 Well, it's still the same old story

 A fight for love and glory

 A case of do or die

 The world will always welcome lovers

 As time goes by

 

 [Queen Latifah] Times don't change, right?

 [Rod Stewart] Sing it to me, Latifah

 

 Oh, I'm singing it to you right now

 Cause we're talking about

 Moonlight and love songs

 Never out of date

 

 Hearts full of passion

 Jealousy and hate

 Woman needs man

 And man must have his mate

 That no one can deny

 

 Well, it's still the same old story

 A fight for love and glory

 A case of do or die

 The world will always welcome lovers

 As time goes by

 As time goes by

 

 Time goes by
